University of North Dakota Computer Science, Engineering, and Mathematics Scholars Program

北达科他大学工程和采矿学院、航空航天研究中心的计算机科学系、数学系与美洲原住民项目办公室共同设立了一个奖学金项目，旨在帮助计算机科学、数学和工程领域的学生。北达科他大学计算机科学、工程和数学奖学金计划的目标是将在技术领域追求主修和辅修的弱势学生、女性和少数族裔学生的数量提高到尽可能高的水平。为了实现这一目标，北达科他大学的首席调查员、联合首席调查员和管理团队建立了以下三个目标：1.招募和支持计算机科学、工程和数学领域的40名学生，这些学生符合财务需求和项目标准，有潜力在2001年12月31日之前获得上述领域的学位，并在申请奖学金时表现出学术价值。在所有40名奖学金获得者及其计算机科学、工程和数学系的导师之间提供高质量和持续的师生关系，并密切监测他们的进展。在项目的四个学期中，向所有40名奖学金获得者提供支持/增强活动和机会。实现上述目标和目的的主要方法是建立高质量的教师/学生指导关系，并得到北达科他大学现有行政、社会和学术支持的支持。该方法在该大学以前的项目中非常成功。北达科他州大学在培养女性、少数族裔和文化少数群体、残疾学生、第一代大学生和经济困难学生方面一直是全国领先的大学。该项目正在增加计算机科学、工程和数学领域的不同毕业生的数量。此外，该项目还为受农业经济不景气、自然灾害或长期贫困影响的农村和农村学生提供获得奖学金的机会。

The University of North Dakota School of Engineering and Mines, the Computer Science Department at the Center for Aerospace Studies, and the Mathematics Department in conjunction with the Office of Native American Programs has established a scholarship program designed to assist students in the computer science, math, and engineering fields. The goal of the University of North Dakota Computer Science, Engineering, and Mathematics Scholarship Program is to raise the number of disadvantaged students, women, and minorities students pursing majors and minors in technological fields to the highest possible level. To accomplish that goal, the Principal Investigator, Co-Principal Investigators, and the Management Team at the University of North Dakota have established the following three objectives: 1. To recruit and support 40 students in the Computer Science, Engineering and Math fields that meet the financial need and project criterion, have the potential of obtaining their degrees in the aforementioned fields by December 31, 200l, and have demonstrated academic merit in their application for a scholarship.2. To provide a high quality and sustained faculty/student relationships between all 40 scholarship recipients and their mentors within the Computer Science, Engineering, and Math faculty, and closely monitor their progress.3. To provide support/enhancement activities and opportunities to all 40 scholarship recipients during each of the four academic terms of the project.The primary method being used to achieve the aforementioned goal and objectives is by establishment of a high quality faculty/student mentoring relationships that are supported by existing administrative, social, and academic support currently available at the University of North Dakota. The method has been highly successful in previous projects at the University. The University of North Dakota has been and continues to be a national leader in producing graduates among women, ethnic and cultural minorities, disabled students, first generation college students, and those that are financially disadvantaged.The project is increasing the number of diverse graduates in each of the computer science, engineering, and mathematics fields. In addition, the project is providing access to scholarship opportunities for rural and farm country students who have been affected by the depressed farm economy, natural disasters, or long-time impoverishment.
